Grade 1

Now that Grade 1 has officially begun,
Listen to our poem, we have such fun!

A is for abacus: one, two, three,B is for break, we love to be free.C is for crayons, colouring bright,D is for daring, don’t get a fright!E is for exciting, we love our new school,F is for fun, Grade 1 is so cool.G is for growing up and learning to write,H is for helping to learn words by sight.I is for interesting, lots of new things,J is for jumping through hoops and rings.K is for Kenridge, we are very proud,L is for laughter, we love to be loud.M is for Maths, we can now add,N is for numbers, they make us glad.O is for office, Aunty Janine is such fun,P is for picnic with teddies in the sun.Q is for the quiet zone, we can’t make a noise,R is for reading for all girls and boys.S is for spelling, we must know the rule,T is for teachers, our new “moms” at school.U is for us, Grade 1’s are the best,V is for values, put us to the test!W is for work, we do it all day,X is for Xhosa where we sing and play.Y is for you, the one reading our poem,Z is for zzzzzzz…. time to go home!
